The Cadets

I’m fairly sure that I got this single at Argy’s. That’s all I can tell you.

The Cadets:

• Stranded In The Jungle– Kind of playing up to the jungle stereotype, and kind of not. The record flits between “meanwhile back in the jungle” and “meanwhile back in the states.” I guess it’s a tale of displacement. From the summer of 1956. Their only hit. And what kind of world must it have been when you could hear songs like this on the radio.
